Buchalter Gets There in the End

Level 1 : 800/1,600, 0 ante

2-7 Triple Draw

Picking up the action after the first round of betting, Daniel Alaei was first to draw and he took two. Yehuda Buchalter was second to draw and he took one. Eli Elezra took one as well.

Everyone checked to the second draw where Alaei took two again, Buchalter took one and Elezra took one. After the draw, action checked to Elezra who bet and both opponents called.

On the final draw, Alaei and Buchalter took one while Elezra stood pat. Action then checked around and Buchalter announced his eight low, showing {8-}{7-}{6-}{4-}{2-} and it was good enough to earn a muck from both of his opponents.
